Tapping to Release the Vow to Stay INVISIBLE
One issue that I frequently work with self-employed people on is, the vow of invisibility. Now what the heck is that and how do you know if you have it? Well if you’ve taken a vow of invisibility, you probably feel blocked when it comes to putting yourself out there in a bigger way. If you’re honest with yourself, do you find that you hide behind your computer rather than picking up the phone to make cold call, attending networking meetings or, putting on a workshop? Or if you’re business is more online focused, do you feel fearful of making YouTube videos or, booking interviews over a teleconference line where there might be 100’s of listeners?
If this sounds like you then you’ve probably have taken a vow to stay invisible to some degree. And, it’s holding you back. Also, this fear most likely comes from childhood when someone told you, that you shouldn’t outshine someone else or stand out. Or maybe, in school, you were ridiculed or criticized by a classmate or teacher from putting up your hand and giving the wrong answer. So, let’s see if we can do something about that.
Even though I’m not comfortable putting myself out there, I deeply and completely accept myself.
Even though it’s scary to think of putting myself out there and being visible, I love and accept myself anyway.
Even though I would rather stay invisible and safe, I choose to release this because it’s not serving me.
It’s too scary to put myself out there
I might be criticized
Judged
Ridiculed
It just doesn’t feel safe
Who am I to have such lofty dreams?
Others might feel threatened
***************************
And I was taught that I shouldn’t stand out
And be different
Because it might make others uncomfortable
And maybe I was taught that I shouldn’t outshine others
Because it might make them feel inadequate
And, that if I fail, I will embarrass and hurt myself
So I chose to stay safe and invisible
********************************
But this vow to stay invisible is no longer serving me
It’s holding me back from putting myself out there
And I’m open to letting this go
And as Marianna Williamson says “if I allow my light to shine, I give others permission to do the same”
So I choose to be an example
And put myself out there in a bigger way
Because I have gifts and talents to share
************************************
And goals I want to achieve
I’m excited about releasing this vow
So that I can feel more freedom
In putting myself out there
And achieving my goals
For my sake
And the sake of others who may follow my example
(Take a deep breath and let it out)
Tap through this scrip several times or until you feel less resistance about stretching yourself and putting yourself out there more.
To Your Success!
